Download Sonny Stitt Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Sonny Stitt was one of the most influential saxophonists in jazz. Stitt was born on February 2, 1924 and died July 22, 1982. Since so little information is available about Stitt's life and music, the author conducted interviews with his widow, Pamela Stitt, and various musicians who performed with him. These interviews were done in order to provide insight into the life and music of this neglected jazz artist. Five improvised tenor saxophone solos, which were transcribed by the author, are analyzed in this paper. These solos were recorded between 1949 and 1972. All of the solos are based on one of the most popular vehicles for jazz improvisation, George Gershwin's "I Got Rhythm." Four of the five solos are from original compositions by Stitt based on the chord changes to "I Got Rhythm." The remaining solo was performed on the actual tune. The analysis of these solos includes consideration of the scales Stitt used and the use and development of melodic material. The author will trace the lineage of Stitt's tenor saxophone style. Although Stitt began his career as an alto saxophonist, he added the tenor saxophone to his arsenal in the late 1940's. Stitt developed a distinct personality on the tenor saxophone, which shows the influence of Lester Young. Many elements of Young's influence will be explored.

Download Moving to Higher Ground Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
In this beautiful book, Pulitzer Prize—winning musician and composer Wynton Marsalis draws upon lessons he’s learned from a lifetime in jazz–lessons that can help us all move to higher ground. With wit and candor he demystifies the music that is the birthright of every American and demonstrates how a real understanding of the central idea of jazz–the unique balance between self-expression and sacrifice for the common good exemplified on the bandstand–can enrich every aspect of our lives, from the bedroom to the boardroom, from the schoolroom to City Hall. Along the way, Marsalis helps us understand the life-changing message of the blues, reveals secrets about playing–and listening–and passes on wisdom he has gleaned from working with three generations of great musicians. Illuminating and inspiring, Moving to Higher Ground is a master class on jazz and life, conducted by a brilliant American artist.
